Getting better email and phone number coverage with waterfall enrichments

People Data Labs is great for finding email and phone number contacts, but it's not the only way to get this data.

For better coverage on email data, we recommend using Clay's waterfall enrichments, which will let you search sequentially across multiple data providers. Learn more on how to use Clay waterfalls with this Clay University lesson.

With that in mind, let’s dive into using People Data Labs within Clay!

Connecting with Clay with People Data Labs

Option 1: Use the Clay-managed People Data Labs account

By default, People Data Labs enrichments will use the Clay-managed People Data Labs account. This means that any new enrichment will charge the designated credit amount.

Simply pull up any People Data Labs enrichment within Clay to use the Clay-managed People Data Labs account.

For more information on how many credits you’ll be charged for each action, check out the list below.

Option 2: Add your own People Data Labs API key

If you are currently on paid plan (Starter, Explorer, Pro) you can use your own People Data Labs account within Clay through an API key.

You can access your People Data Labs API key through the Integrations section.

You can add your API key by Add Account through any People Data Labs enrichment.
